Sorry coalition has let you down - Monmouth MP David Davies

MAY I sincerely congratulate councillors of all parties, and none, who were elected to Monmouthshire County Council last week. I shall
be very happy to work with you all on improving local services.

May I also offer my apologies to those who feel the Conservative-led coalition has let them down. I must acknowledge there has been incompetence at the highest levels of government over the last
few months in a number of departments.

Meanwhile, there has been an emphasis on issues such as gay marriage and reform of the House of Lords, at the expense of explaining the financial situation; a failure to deport dangerous terrorists
because of concerns about human rights; and an apparent unwillingness to listen to the concerns of electors and the backbench MPs who represent them.
